Of course, and as we all know, the obvious answer is:

There is a town Bogie in Australia.


We all know the verb to bogie.


Bogie H is a well loved member of this site.


So simply does this work?


Bogie Bogie Bogie Bogie bogie bogie Bogie Bogie.

It's not a sentence, but it is a valid phrase: something a golf magazine publisher might request from the photo editor:

Shot shot shot shot shot

Eg.: [ruined] [ball strike] [photograph] [attempt] [injection]

Cheers,

Christian,


You made my morning! Shot is a great word and one of my favorite drinks. I'm frozen in my chair after blowing my mind combining shot and buffalo in the same sentence. Shot Buffalo buffalo shot Buffalo buffalo shot buffalo buffalo shot Buffalo buffalo shot.

Clubs' club clubs club clubs' club clubs' clubs. With clubs, obviously.


Which, I guess, could also be said as: Clubs' club clubs' clubs club clubs' club clubs' clubs.

Clubs' clubs clubs' clubs club club clubs' clubs. Meaning golf clubs that belong to members' clubs, which are clubbed by other golf clubs belonging to members' clubs then also club golf clubs belonging to members' clubs.


I was always partial to the eleven hads in a sentence. John whereas Mary had had "had", had had "had had", "had had" had had the teacher's approval.

John, where Mary had had “had had had” had had “had had had had”. “Had had had had” had had even less approval than had had “had had had.”

Chinese cheat. There are four different pronunciations (intonations) allowing Shi to have at a minimum 4 different meanings, not to mention the combination shishi means thank you.
